Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connecting shaft technology, and specifically to an improved device for connecting shaft connection. Background Technology

[0002] The tube stripping machine is a type of metal pressure processing equipment, mainly used in seamless steel pipe production lines. Based on process requirements, it can be divided into two categories: bar stripping machines and tube stripping machines. The former removes the mandrel after fixing the rough tube, while the latter removes the rough tube after fixing the mandrel. It is mainly configured in continuous rolling mills such as PQF and MPM, and is suitable for the production of high-precision seamless steel pipes such as nuclear power plant tubes and high-pressure boiler tubes. Typical application cases include companies such as Tianjin Seamless Steel Pipe Plant.

[0003] The existing tube removal machine's connecting shaft consists of a shaft head and a shaft, which are connected by a connecting block and fixed with bolts. During processing, the shaft head and shaft rotate at high speed. After long-term use, the connecting block between the shaft head and shaft wears due to friction. When the bolt is under stress, it breaks, and the shaft head falls off, resulting in the inability to transmit torque normally. This causes the tube removal machine to experience torque alarms, shutdowns, and other malfunctions.

[0004] To address the above technical problems, this utility model proposes an improved device for connecting shaft connection. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide an improved device for connecting shaft connection. Through a new structure of shaft head and shaft, the original bolt connection between the shaft head and shaft of the tube removal machine is changed to an interference fit and equipped with a double key to ensure connection strength and stability. Moreover, the structure is simple, making it easy to replace the shaft head and shaft, improving inspection efficiency, reducing the occurrence of fault points at this location, and ensuring the stability of the equipment.

[0006] The technical problem solved by this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] An improved device for connecting shafts includes a shaft head and a shaft. The shaft head is installed at the front end of the shaft, and a spring mounting sleeve is installed at the rear end of the shaft. The spring mounting sleeve is fitted inside a gear, and a protective cover is installed outside the gear.

[0008] The shaft head has a built-in second mounting hole, and keyways are symmetrically arranged on the outer surface of the second mounting hole. A third retaining platform is arranged on the outer circumference of the shaft head.

[0009] The shaft has a shaft tip at its front end, a first retaining plate and a second retaining plate on the outer circumference of the rear end of the shaft tip, and a first mounting hole arranged along the circumference at the rear end of the shaft.

[0010] Furthermore, a buffer device is installed between the third clamping platform of the shaft head and the second clamping platform at the front end of the shaft.

[0011] Furthermore, the outer surface of the shaft tip is symmetrically provided with keys, which match the keyways symmetrically provided on the outer surface of the second mounting hole.

[0012] Furthermore, the tip of the shaft is mounted in the second mounting hole of the shaft head.

[0013] Furthermore, the front end of the protective cover, the front end of the gear, and the rear end of the shaft are connected by a first bolt and a third bolt, respectively.

[0014] Furthermore, the rear end of the protective cover, the rear end of the gear, and the rear end of the spring mounting sleeve are connected by a second bolt.

[0015] The advantages and positive effects of this utility model are:

[0016] This invention, through a novel structure for the shaft head and shaft, replaces the original bolted connection between the shaft head and shaft of the tube-removing machine with an interference fit, equipped with a double key to ensure connection strength and stability. The structure is simple, facilitating shaft head and shaft replacement, improving inspection efficiency, reducing the occurrence of fault points in this location, and ensuring equipment stability. It solves the problem of existing tube-removing machines where the shaft head and shaft are connected by a connecting block and fixed with bolts. During processing, the shaft head and shaft rotate at high speed, and after long-term use, the connecting block between the shaft head and shaft wears due to friction, causing the bolts to break under stress and the shaft head to fall off, resulting in abnormal torque transmission and malfunctions such as torque alarms and machine shutdowns.
